Quik Hinges available (2 Viewers)

[69LC]

No exact eta yet. Since returning from TDY I've been swamped at work and now have to follow a project to Florida for almost two months. That won't affect building a website though, and may offer more opportunities to get it going.

I have some possibilities to work through as the parts are pretty much ready. Keep those cash piles ready. I should also have the apparel stuff going soon too.

I will be taking an 80 knuckle assembly with me also to analyze for developing a more robust and rust-free HD knuckle seal wiper retainer to go with the ones I will offer for 40s, 55s, mini trucks and straight axle 4-runners.

Yes sir...

There was a nice video here, but I moved it to my opening post on page one...

 

[CraftsByCarrie]

Also interested. Well for the hubby

 

[69LC]

Thanks Carrie. It's still crawling ahead. I'm about 1/2way through a long service job in Florida. As things slow down I will have the ability to dig in and get things moving ahead.

Great to see this back up and running Matthew. Nice work.

Nice work. Also a plug for a real deal Cruiser head that knows what he's doing and works hard. Keep it up Matthew.

 

[69LC]

Thanks guys!

i like those but with a welder and cut off wheel you can make a set of fst hinges in about a half hour from a set of stock hinges good luck on the sales

 

[69LC]

Hey shelfboy1, You're right, but I along with everyone who buys these hinges uses them because they're intentionally made, not a weak after thought as the fst hinges are.

They're also easily rebuildable if they ever wear. Ive been told by many people that their doors have never operated so smoothly as they do after using the Quik Hinge. That was a nice bonus.

 

[DomSmith]

I have a welder and a cutoff wheel. And even 1/2 an hour. But I certainly can't get this kind of hinge with those tools and my skill set!

 

[69LC]

For anyone interested in the hinges who have the later thick doors, I'll post up when the hinges are ready for you. Currently they are ready for the early thin doors. Stay tuned...

Hey Matthew - can you define later "thick" doors? Are these the ~74+ doors without the split window, or is this sometime later (ie: 1980+)

 

[69LC]

I don't know the year split, but if you look at the pics on page one of this thread you can see the difference between the two.

 

[fjc-man]

Matt, are you referring to the two pics of the blue 40? Late door w/o vent window versus that fst looking door?
Is the difference with the door mounted half of the hinge? I guess I'm waiting (79).

 

[DomSmith]

I didn't realize there was a difference in hinges. Early would be through 74. Older (thicker- first blue door in pic) 75 and up.

I Have a 73 with 75+ doors.
